Lara Martini

Lara Martini is a Lecturer at the University of Southern California and previously at UCLA, specializing in atomic and molecular physics. She holds a Ph.D. in Physics from Universidad Nacional de Rosario (2021) and a B.S. from the same institution (2016). Her academic appointments include positions at Universidad Católica Argentina and Universidad Nacional de Rosario as Head of Practical Assignments, along with research roles at Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas and Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.

Her research focuses on quantum dynamics in atomic systems, particularly polarization control in photoionization processes using attosecond laser techniques. Key interests include Fano resonances, time-delay measurements, and interference phenomena in molecular ionization.

Publications demonstrate consistent focus on laser-matter interactions, with theoretical modeling of quantum interference effects dominating recent work. Research employs analytical and computational methods to study electron dynamics in atoms and molecules under polarized light excitation.
